B-Devils leading scorer Nick Lappin called up to New Jersey

BINGHAMTON (WBNG) - The New Jersey Devils called up Nick Lappin from the Binghamton Devils on Monday and placed Cory Schneider on injured reserve. Lappin was leading the B-Devils in goals scored with 17. He's played in two games with New Jersey already this season.

Losing its leading goal scorer is a huge blow for the B-Devils. Binghamton has the third fewest goals scored in the AHL. The team is also in last place in the overall AHL standings.
